Catching Up and Plotting

Hi everybody,

Here's what we've been up to:

11s:
Today was our chance to revise Acts I - III of Macbeth for the Act I - III test on Monday, April 02.
The test will take the following format:

Part 1:
5 quote questions (6 pts each) which will have three parts:

<< Quotation>>

(a) who is the speaker? to whom are they speaking? (2 pts)
(b) what happens after the quotation? (1pt)
(c) what is the significance of this quote to the larger themes of the play?(3 pts)

Part 2:
A statement, for example: (12 pts)


"There are circumstances which justify murder. Discuss this statement in relation to Macbeth."


We revised all of the quotes in class, now it's your turn. Use those yellow sheets wisely, and look over everything we've done so far. Good luck and I'll see you on Monday!


12s:


Working through plot graphs helped us to understand the idea of plot and subplot and how it relates to The Taming of the Shrew.

All of your Act Review questions should be with me by the end of the day, or there will be more marks awarded.

Have a great weekend everybody!
Ms. Johnson
